The article "Optimizing hyperbaric oxygen therapy for PTSD—The importance of dose and duration for sustained benefits" published in Frontiers in Neurology discusses the dose-response relationship of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) on post-traumatic symptoms in patients with PTSD. The study found that increasing cumulative oxygen doses from 1,002 to 11,400 atmosphere-minutes (AMs) corresponded to increased symptomatic improvement, with some subjects experiencing reversible exacerbation of emotional symptoms at higher doses. While short-term response to HBOT using lower AMs may be fair, long-term treatment courses may be necessary for lasting improvement and neuroplasticity. The article highlights the need for further research on the optimal dose and duration of HBOT for PTSD treatment. [Extracted from the article] |
